Restaurant review: Henry's (on Burnside)

Melina writes: This is one of my favorite restaurants. We've been there as many times as I have hands, plus one. When you first get to the restaurant they give you a shiny thing that looks like a remote control. I gummed it for a while and stared at the flashing lights until it started beeping. Tres amusant! The restaurant is dark, with a nice womblike hum, and I managed to get a good nap on mama's lap the first time we went. The wait staff smiled at me a lot and I heard other babies nearby. (It's always good to know you have other babies around to back you up.) It's loud enough that nobody raises an eyebrow if you want to screech. I was a little peeved that they wouldn't let us into the bar, though. Apparently, I'm still a minor. However, they made up for it by giving me some nice romaine lettuce (Lactuca sativa) to play with. They also have high chairs with straps that keep me from sliding to the floor. I hate that.

Hey jen. A few years back me and the office guys use to eat there every night after work. We have somewhat of a Startup life and sometimes it gets up to 12-13 hours working a day, and that was our chosen place to drown our sorrow in.
